Pejorative used to describe "lower"-class (not necessarily poor) urban lads and "ladettes" who don't speak right (and worse: too loud), , primarily wear sports gear (especially tracksuits) and bling (as well as the burberry check for a few years back along), have too many kids, drink too much, etc. It's simultaneously a real description of a real slice of British life and yet another way to marginalise those below one's station.

Googling "pulling tissues from a tallboy" yielded this. A cryogenic tissue grinder? That the kind of tissue you're pulling from it?

a tallboy is also a 24 oz can of beer (in contrast to a typical 16 oz can).

What is the nature of your dissatisfaction with that post?

"bells and whistles" are extra embellishments or features on something

Sainsburys is a ubiquitous national chain of supermarkets, maj works at one.

Puffer is one of these:

Trackies or jogging bottoms are "tracksuit/running pants"

"went hard" from "[to] go hard" - doing something to its fullest

obvo = obvious

mong = someone underdeveloped mentally, retarded or otherwise intellectually challenged. From "mongoloid" which used to be a harsh word for someone with Down's syndrome but can be used more generally. See also: spack or spazz.
